Ufunuo 19
1 Baada ya mambo haya nilisikia sauti kama ya mlio mkubwa wa kundi kubwa la watu mbinguni ikisema, “Haleluya. Wokovu, utukufu, na nguvu ni vya Mungu wetu.
After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Hallelujah! Salvation, power, and glory belong to our God;
2 Hukumu zake ni kweli na za haki, kwa kuwa amemhukumu kahaba mkuu aliyeiharibu nchi kwa uzinzi wake. Amefanya kisasi kwa damu ya watumishi wake, ambayo aliimwaga yeye mwenyewe.”
for his judgements are true and righteous. For he has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality, and he has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.”
A second said, “Hallelujah! Her smoke goes up forever and ever.” (aiōn g165)
4 Wale wazee ishirini na wanne na viumbe hai wanne wakasujudu na kumwabudu Mungu akaaye kwenye kiti cha enzi. Walikuwa wakisema, “Amina. Haleluya!”
The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped God who sits on the throne, saying, “Amen! Hallelujah!”
5 Ndipo sauti ilitoka kwenye kiti cha enzi, ikisema, “Msifuni Mungu wetu, enyi watumishi wake wote, ninyi mnaomcha yeye, wote wasio na umuhimu na wenye nguvu.”
A voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, the small and the great!”
6 Ndipo nilisikia sauti kama sauti ya kundi kubwa la watu, kama sauti ya ngurumo ya maji mengi, na kama ngurumo ya radi, ikisema, “Haleluya! Bwana ni Mungu wetu, mtawala juu ya wote, hutawala.
I heard something like the voice of a great multitude, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns!
7 Na tushangilie na kufurahi na kumpa utukufu kwa sababu harusi na sherehe ya Mwana Kondoo imekuja, na bibi harusi yuko tayari.”
Let’s rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let’s give the glory to him. For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready.”
8 Aliruhusiwa kuvalishwa kitani safi na yenye kung'aa (kitani safi ni matendo ya haki ya waumini).
It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
9 Malaika akasema nami, “Yaandike haya: Wamebarikiwa walioalikwa kwenye sherehe ya harusi ya Mwana kondoo.” Vilevile akaniambia, “Haya ni maneno ya kweli ya Mungu.”
He said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb.’” He said to me, “These are true words of God.”
10 Nilisujudu mbele ya miguu yake nikamwabudu, lakini akaniambia, “Usifanye hivi! Mimi ni mtumishi mwenzako na wa ndugu zako mwenye kuushika ushuhuda wa Yesu. Mwabudu Mungu, kwa kuwa ushuhuda wa Yesu ni roho ya unabii.”
I fell down before his feet to worship him. He said to me, “Look! Don’t do it! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers who hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God, for the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of Prophecy.”
11 Kisha niliona mbingu zimefunguka, na tazama kulikuwa na farasi mweupe! Na yule aliyekuwa amempanda anaitwa Mwaminifu na wa Kweli. Huhukumu kwa haki na kufanya vita.
I saw the heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it is called Faithful and True. In righteousness he judges and makes war.
12 Macho yake ni kama mwali wa moto, na juu ya kichwa chake ana taji nyingi. Ana jina lililoandikwa juu yake asilolifahamu mtu yeyote isipokuwa yeye mwenyewe.
His eyes are a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has names written and a name written which no one knows but he himself.
13 Amevaa vazi lililochovywa katika damu, na jina lake aliitwa Neno la Mungu.
He is clothed in a garment sprinkled with blood. His name is called “The Word of God.”
14 Majeshi ya mbinguni yalikuwa yakimfuata juu ya farasi weupe, walivalishwa kitani nzuri, nyeupe na safi.
The armies which are in heaven, clothed in white, pure, fine linen, followed him on white horses.
15 Kinywani mwake hutoka upanga mkali ambao huyaangamiza mataifa, naye atawatawala kwa fimbo ya chuma. Naye hukanyaga vyombo vya mvinyo kwa hasira kali ya Mungu, hutawala juu ya wote.
Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.
16 Naye ameandikwa juu ya vazi lake na katika paja lake jina, MFALME WA WAFALME NA BWANA WA MABWANA.
He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.”
17 Niliona malaika amesimama katika jua. Aliwaita kwa sauti kuu ndege wote warukao juu, “Njoni, kusanyikeni pamoja kwenye chakula kikuu cha Mungu.
I saw an angel standing in the sun. He cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the sky, “Come! Be gathered together to the great supper of God,
18 Njoni mle nyama ya wafalme, nyama ya majemedari, nyama ya watu wakubwa, nyama ya farasi na wapanda farasi, na nyama ya watu wote, walio huru na watumwa, wasio na umuhimu na wenye nguvu.”
that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, small and great.”
19 Nilimwona mnyama na wafalme wa nchi pamoja na majeshi yao. Walikuwa wamejipanga kwa ajili ya kufanya vita na mmoja aliyepanda farasi na jeshi lake.
I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him who sat on the horse and against his army.
21 Wale waliobaki waliuawa kwa upanga uliotoka kinywani mwa mmoja aliyepanda juu ya farasi. Ndege wote walikula mizoga ya miili yao.
The rest were killed with the sword of him who sat on the horse, the sword which came out of his mouth. So all the birds were filled with their flesh.
